    is there any reason why i couldn't activate my sim through porting? I was at the last step where you pressed submit and there was always an error

      I also had the same problem twice, after I changed the email address to make a new account, the problem was solved.

      • hmac on 14/11/2018 - 21:16

        will try this in a few months!

      Belong is based on the Telstra network I believe, if you are porting from a service using the Telstra network to a service that is also using the Telstra network you will have to call Belong to get a blank sim and then port and transfer over the starter kit.

      • spaceflight on 14/11/2018 - 22:05

        You are thinking of Boost, they are different as you are pretty much treated as a Telstra retail customer from a billing and service point (same billing system etc)

        Belong is a MVNO like any other so there are no porting issues.

        • [Deactivated] on 15/11/2018 - 09:56

          That's a lie. It takes longer and I had to email support if you are switching from telstra mvno to another

          • spaceflight on 15/11/2018 - 19:31

            @[Deactivated]: Your comment is not relevant to the issue of sim cards when porting between Boost and Telstra.

            Your port probably failed. Ports can fail for a number of reasons.

            What you experienced was not an issue porting between Boost and Telstra.

            Moving between Boost and Telstra is a unique issue because Boost customers are on the Telstra billing system. It is not because they are a Telstra MVNO.

      • Wardaddy on 17/11/2018 - 12:22

        What? You always have to get a new SIM when porting to a new provider.

  • jasperthegoat on 14/11/2018 - 20:26

    Is there an expiry date for the sim cards?

    • kei on 14/11/2018 - 21:14

      Wondering the same thing. My current mobile contract ends in 2 months. Want to switch to belong. If I buy it now can it be activated 2 months down the track?

    • AssociatedCellmate @ Cellmate on 14/11/2018 - 21:42

      Hello. The expiry date is 1 year

      • Iwantthatbargain on 14/11/2018 - 22:00

        That info may not be correct. I had contacted the Belong customer service, this is what they replied :
        Our SIM cards does not have an expiry date you may activate them at any time by registering the SIM through our website and if you do encounter any issues feel free to raise a support request and include a picture of the SIM card and receipt so we may process a replacement free of charge.

        • brisdaz on 02/01/2019 - 05:38

          The SIM cards may not expire but the credit on it might.

          Mine says Loaded credit will expire 12 months after purchase on the back of the SIM card package.

        • apokalypsez on 17/01/2019 - 15:11

          belong sim card have no expire date or what?

    • spaceflight on 14/11/2018 - 22:10
      +1

      The new sim card I have does not have an expiry date on it, only a production date.

      I think sim cards expire because there is a phone number allocated to it so for providers to get the number back so they can use it again the card needs to expire.
      Belong sim cards do not come with a number allocated to them.

  • Gravy on 14/11/2018 - 20:29

    Are the still offering the bonus for both signing up under someone else and also for referring a friend?

    On a side note, you business logo made me flashback to the late 80's early 90's as it reminded me of the Infogrames game studio logo. Anyone else old enough to remember that one?

      Yes. Used it the other day.

    • freewhere on 14/11/2018 - 20:55

      How does "signing up under someone else" work?

      • Steptoe on 14/11/2018 - 21:28

        Explanation in grey box

        https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/belong.com.au

        • freewhere on 14/11/2018 - 22:32

          Isn't that just referral? Gravy mentioned BOTH "signing up under someone else" AND ALSO FOR "referring a friend"
          Sounds like two mountable ways to earn more just a referral.

          • Gravy on 14/11/2018 - 23:38

            @freewhere: Yes, both the referee and referrer get a credit to their account. Once you have signed up you also have the chance to use your own code to refer others and get additional credit. At least thats how it worked a few months ago when I signed up. I think I ended up with about 8 months worth of the $10 plan by signing up under someone, then signing up my wife under me, all for $15 total (edit, or maybe it was $20 when I got my sim). :)

            • freewhere on 14/11/2018 - 23:50

              @Gravy: Ah, I see now what you meant. I imagined something entirely different.

  • [Deactivated] on 14/11/2018 - 21:06

    Good info here and plenty of hacks in the forums

    https://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/belongmobile

    Eg. This $15 sim can be used to give your current belong account $20 credit and 30gb of data. I'll be buying a few at this price. Cheers op

    • hmac on 14/11/2018 - 21:17

      wait what do you mean?

    • cowiie on 14/11/2018 - 21:25
      +1

      Yes please explain. I currently have a belong plan @ $10/month

      • Jollystacker on 14/11/2018 - 21:46

        because you get $20 credit for a referral, so he use the sim to get the credit on both accounts. Then he can transfer the data back to his own proper account later too.

        • Iwantthatbargain on 14/11/2018 - 22:21

          Can you get referral $20 for mobile plan as well? Any link?
          I think the referral bonus is applicable only for NBN plan..

      • Steptoe on 14/11/2018 - 21:47

        Read the hacks on previous deals.

        Open new account and refer yourself. Activate on the right day of the month for double data and gift it to your primary account.

        • freewhere on 14/11/2018 - 22:35

          How to know the "right day of the month" ?

          • tellhimhesdreaming on 15/11/2018 - 09:45
            +1

            @freewhere: It's pretty commonly found but:

            We have 4 billing cycle here in Belong Mobile, the 4th, 12th, 20th, and the 28th of the month

            So if you activate your card in between these dates, eg on the 6th of the month, then you'll get one lot of free data. Because you don't get your credit debited until a billing date. Effectively meaning you get double data on activation of the plan.

            I cut across to belong, bought two sims, activated primary with an ozb referral, then activated second with my own referral, gifted the data from the second to my primary and now have $40 credit and 60+gb of data in the bank for an initial outlay of 2 sims ($30 in this case, $40 in my case)

            Happy so far!

      • Tuftsdude on 14/11/2018 - 21:58

        "Starter packs

        The $40 starter packs can be activated on any plan. If activated on the $10 plan, you will get 4 months before having to pay more."

        • xmail on 14/11/2018 - 22:21

          But does that include activating on an 'existing $10 plan'?

    • Realdee on 15/11/2018 - 09:29

      I do the exact same thing for my dad. These deals are so regular and his usage so low that I replaced his fixed cable connection with Belong.

  • testeagles on 14/11/2018 - 22:10

    If you use a referral link you also get an additional $20 credit. So effectively you could get 6 months of calls and text for $15.
    Only draw back is you will only get 1gb of data per month. On the plus side any unused data roles over.
    If you have a dual Sim phone use the second Sim to data hop cheap high use data sims

    • bdl on 15/11/2018 - 09:52

      Re: rollover, I think the data rolls over in 1gb blocks so if you are on the 1gb/$10/mth plan, then if you use any data that month, it will not roll over. Best to start on a higher plan for the first month and then change to 1gb/$10/mth plan in the months after that so you can roll that initial allocation of data over.

      • Quantumcat on 15/11/2018 - 11:14

        No it doesn't, all unused data is available in the future

  • npnp on 14/11/2018 - 22:18

    Can I buy more than 1 and use them one after the other for the same mobile number without porting out and in again? (I mean like a top up)

  • Gazpacho on 14/11/2018 - 23:08

    • lomie on 15/11/2018 - 05:32

      This could be an alternative

      Message2Txt

      message that we will try to convert into text and send to you as an
      SMS. We don’t currently offer a traditional voicemail service.

    Am I correct in thinking this would be cheapest way to have a 4G connection on an iPad? Activating this on the $10 plan and the $20 referral bonus would get 6 months for $15 right?

    • AssociatedCellmate @ Cellmate on 15/11/2018 - 14:33

      Hello! These are for voice and data and hence only for mobile phones and not purely for data however you can use the data from your phone to your Ipad via tethering

      • dealsandstuff on 15/11/2018 - 15:04

        I understand that it has voice and text included, but from reading the belong website it seem like it’ll work in iPads still, which makes it potentially a $2.50/month plan!

                @sandshrew: Thank you. Yes you are correct. On the first day we opened the deal we received a huge number of orders and hence the product went OUT OF STOCK overnight and also created back orders. We really appreciate the patience and understanding of all our valued customers. We try our best to fulfill orders as soon as possible. Please also note that we have to wait for BELONG to deliver us the sims as well and any delay on their end causes a delay at ours too.
